Attractions
There’s a wide range of things to see and do in Greensand Country. Enjoy a trip out with friends and family to one of these popular visitor attractions:
Woburn Lido – One of the UK’s few remaining outdoor pools and the largest in Bedfordshire. There’s also a smaller lido in Eversholt. Both are great on a hot summer’s day!
Summerfields’ Miniature Railways – A great day out for all the family. Visit during public running days and enjoy watching and riding on miniature trains.
Woburn Safari park – A wildlife park with over 1000 animals. Also on site is a Go Ape course with zip-wires and rope bridges.
Swiss Garden at Shuttleworth – A peaceful, tranquil space featuring 13 listed structures and an adjacent woodland sculpture trail.
The Collection at Shuttleworth – Home to the best collection of genuine WWI aircraft (that all still fly) in Europe, alongside other historic aircraft from 1909 to the 1950s.
Leighton Buzzard Narrow Gauge Railway – One of the last survivors of 2 foot (610mm) gauge light railways built in Britain for industrial use. It is one of the largest attractions in the area and is a registered museum.
